A Rainy Day In Prague – Czech Republic - Original Photography

in #photofeed7 years ago

PRAGUE - A PHOTOGRAPHER'S PARADISE

I never tire of visiting Prague. It is my most favorite city in the world, and as you can see from this photograph, the sun does not need to be shining in order for you do get some fantastic shots in this city, which is a photographer's dream! In fact the overcast and rainy skies create a huge umbrella which causes the light to be soft and muted with no hard shadows!

I have literally thousands of images from my trips to the Czech Republic, so have decided to start sharing them on a more consistent basis. Some are already stock images, but others will be published here on Steemit for the first time.

This one is a good selling stock image on Getty Images here, and is one of my favorites.

Which is your favorite city in the world to photograph?

Colorful Umbrellas makes a great picture.

Yes, you can't go wrong for color with some umbrellas around!

Thanks for your kind comment.

What an awesome viewpoint and shot

Tip!

Thanks and thanks for the tip too. I have loads of shots taken st other times in the sunshine, but this is my favorite!😊

I can see why it would be all the umbrellas add to the image

I agree. Plus the others have more deep shadows. :-)

Where were you standing? I love old town and Prague is one of my favorite cities. I spent so much time there a few years back! I also love Krakow and Paris and Venice.. and small little villages all over Europe.

I think every city has something. Stunning capture! tip!

Thanks so much, and thanks fort he tip, Denise! I was up in the tower of Old Town Hall. I had seen the astronomical clock so many times. I just wanted some good views from up top! The people were all waiting for the apostles to appear.

Prague is near the top of my list of places to visit. This is a captivating street image.

Thanks! I have visited it 6 times now on 3 trips to the Czech Republic. I'm longing for return visit. :-)

Awsome shot :) Glad to know you like my homeland! :)

I love your homeland. I volunteered for 3 years at an English Camp in Eagle Mountains. I love the Czech people! :-)
